A trip to the Mosel (II) – Prädikat wines

Posted on October 17, 2019October 17, 2019 by Peter Kupers Posted in Germany, Mosel, Spotlight, Uncategorized Tagged German Wine, Germany, Mosel, Sweet Wine, White Wine, WineLeave a Comment on A trip to the Mosel (II) – Prädikat wines

Whereas I would consider 2018 to be a great year for the dry wines, I am a bit more doubtful for the Prädikat wines, especially when it comes to Kabinett. The very essence of quintessential Mosel Kabinett is a lovely light fruitiness on a backbone of minerality, something that was […]

There is no greater event to attend in September than the auction days in the Mosel valley. I know it is a bit of a bold claim, but two days of tasting the very finest wines that are produced in the valley, followed by an evening where winemakers share some […]

Riga is a fantastic city. Sure, it does not have the fairy tale views that you get in Tallinn, nor the grandeur of Helsinki. There is however an edginess to it, a carefreeness that also defines Brussels or Berlin, cities that do not concern themselves with just being pretty or […]

Dining in Estonia: Tartu

Posted on July 4, 2019July 4, 2019 by Peter Kupers Posted in Drink & Dine Tagged Austrian Wine, Baltics, Bordeaux, Estonia, Foodie, Italian wine, South African wine, Tartu, WineLeave a Comment on Dining in Estonia: Tartu

Tartu is the second city of Estonia, which make it sound a lot bigger than it actually is. It is lovely for an afternoon stroll though, and when you also pay a visit to the astonishing Estonian National Museum, wonderfully integrated in an old and abandoned Raadi Airfield, two days […]

Biodynamic conversion in practice – Francis Boulard
Biodynamic or natural viticulture is a challenge in the Champagne. In my first post on the topic I mentioned that the focus with most growers lies on securing yield, ensuring that nothing happens endangers the amount of grapes you get at harvest. As most growers are dependent on either the grands

Grosse Winzer, Grosse Weine
On the eve of Prowein, the biggest wine event in Germany and perhaps all of Europe, there are plenty of off-events to attend. Everyone who matters or wants to matter is already in or near Düsseldorf, so why not take advantage of the opportunity to socialize? Two years ago, I

Pithon-Paillé, Bonnes Blanches 2013
In honor of Drink Chenin Day, back to the place where it all began: Anjou! The region produces some of the greatest white wines in the world, but is woefully under-appreciated. This is in large part the result of an overly complicated appellation structure. The first thing to understand is

A unique tasting of aged German wines
German wine is gaining ground on the Belgian wine market, which is of course fantastic. There where however darker times, when Germany was eschewed by many as a proper wine country and considered a mere ocean of flabby, sweet swill. Luckily there were a couple of wine merchants who remained
